Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

My beautiful students are at the age where they are very curious about what life has in store for them. I am here to assist them in learning all about their curiosities. They work together, celebrate one another's accomplishments and they love to celebrate their friends. I love to connect their real world experiences with the classroom experiences that will allow them to become comfortable with themselves and their classmates.

My scholars will use materials from nature to create and explore their environment and build upon their everyday learning.

My Project

Learning about community and how to build a strong one is so important on our young children. It often teaches them how to work together, how to look out for one another and how their own community helpers help them in their community.

By providing my students with these dolls, it will help enhance and build their understanding of who helps support their community.

Even while at home, we still learn through play with our Centers time such as Dramatic Play and being able to dress up as a community helper.
